    Just ok. Easy recipe and meat came out tender and juicy. But all I could taste was garlic. Luckily I made a gravy which added enough flavor to make the meal acceptable. I probably will not make this recipe again, though

    So simple and Sooo good. My dinner guest and I loved this and the ultimate compliment is when they ask for more.

    I had no problem with liquid cooking off but did take advice of others in adding little chicken broth or bouillon in bottom of pan and used for basting during cooking. Agree with others that vinegar was best secret ingredient here.

    Roast was super tender and juicy and this was a cheaper cut, but turned out fantastic.

    This recipe is fantastic! The vinegar addition is just a superb idea...the roast was tender & absolutely delish! I added sliced apples, potatoes & onions to the roasting pan & cooked this at a higher temp than was suggested, 375 did the trick for me. Kudos to the peep who invented this dish, bravo!!
